Pantera - Hot & Heavy

Produced this back in 1987 (or was it '88?) with the father of Darrel and Vinnie, Jerry Abbott. I take all blame for it being cheesy and cheap...it was Dallas Cable Access. They never thought this was "great" but it was fun for at least a day.

And this WAS a fun day. Jerry had the concept of the boys just jamming around the room with a hot girl and "fix it in the mix". Asked my room- mates girlfriend to star in our video (without asking him first) so he was in the parking lot with a 9mm the whole time we're filming inside.

The VW was owned by a friend of the band (who is in this thread) and I had heard he was given a traffic citation for indecency on the way home. He has yet to confirm this...

This was quickly followed up by singer, Terry Lee, leaving the band and the video became an irrelevant embarrassment as they went on to become enormous stars within only a couple of years. I promised them I wouldn't release this, but now that they are gone and so many bad copies are on the web, I thought it would appropriate to remember them as youngsters going on an exciting journey to the top.
